Motivation in a flipped classroom
Student motivation is fairly high compared to a traditional classroom setting for a number of reasons. The main reason that I have seen is because it is something different than they way they've ever been taught before. Students happily come in and ask for the next flip video. Students have never asked me when our next homework assignment was in an excited tone.
Getting to see the students interact with the content via video (during lunch or after school) is impressive. Getting a chance to work with the students on a more individual basis during class is what it's all about, though. Using the flipped model, my students get more interaction and response to intervention from me because I'm not spending 30 minutes of every class period doing my initial instruction. The motivation is there from my students and myself.
